Taken from the NanoMarkets report, “LED Phosphor Markets 2014”

This new NanoMarkets report provides a thorough analysis of the latest opportunities in the LED phosphor markets.  It builds on NanoMarkets’ successful 2012 phosphor report and shows how the phosphor market is shifting in response to latest developments in both display backlighting and general illumination markets.

In this years’ report, we are placing special attention on some of the newer phosphor chemistries such as nanophosphors, glass phosphors and QDs.  And we also ask and answer the question as to how new phosphor materials can build market share in a market crowded in new materials.

We identify how performance improvements are likely to help grow addressable markets for phosphors, with an especial focus on general illumination, outdoor/street lighting and backlighting and how money will be made in the LED phosphor market.

The report also includes NanoMarkets’ assessments of the product/market strategies of leading firms active in the LED phosphors space.  And, as always with our reports, this report contains granular eight-year forecasts of the LED phosphors shipments in volume and value terms, with breakouts by type of phosphor and type of application.  This report is required reading, not just for strategy planners at phosphor firms, but for those throughout the solid-state lighting and display industries. – See more at: http://nanomarkets.net/market_reports/report/led_phosphor_markets_2014

Slides from the NanoMarkets report,  “Slides for Worldwide Smart Coatings Markets: 2013-2020”

Smart coatings change in response to external stimuli and are finding a fast growing number of applications in several industries including construction, automotive, medical, consumer electronic goods and the military.  NanoMarkets believes that these materials present a strong business case because of their unique functionality and their ability to be highly customized.  We think smart coatings will do especially well in medical, military and other applications, where quality and performance, rather than price, shape purchasing decisions.  Consumer markets where the customer is willing to pay a premium for functionality such as scratch resistance or enhanced energy efficiency will also be important.

NanoMarkets commenced coverage of smart coatings in 2011.  As such it has a solid understanding of the dynamics of the smart coatings business and it brings this experience to this report.  The report covers all the major markets for smart coatings including energy, automotive, medical, electronics, textiles and military.   And it includes an assessment of the product/marketing strategies of key firms supplying smart coatings, as well as eight-year forecasts by applications sector and by type of coating.  These forecasts are both in volume and in value terms.

This report also assesses the latest technical developments in the smart coatings space; smart coatings are becoming smarter and more biological, for example Based on the latest R&D and university research, we also examines future directions for smart coatings including important developments in manufacturing.  We believe that this report will provide guidance to coatings and other specialty chemical firms, as well as firms making production equipment, and others planning to make investments of all kinds in smart materials.

These slides are from the NanoMarkets report, “Worldwide Medical Ceramics Markets 2013”

NanoMarkets believes that medical ceramics represents a major opportunity in the medical materials market over the next few years.  They have already established themselves in orthopedic and dental implants; providing a multitude of patients with problem free bone and tooth replacements.  Increasingly, prostheses for hip replacement consist of metal ceramic composites. NanoMarkets also believes that bioceramics and their metal composites have a great potential to heal long segmental bone defects and that in the future, orthopedic implants will rely on scaffold-guided bone tissue.

The primary goal of this report is to identify the market opportunities in the medical ceramics sector over the next eight years.  This report not only includes a granular forecast and analysis of the more established medical ceramics markets, but also gives a comprehensive analysis of medical nano-ceramics especially in terms of enhancing the healing properties of implantable materials.
This report discusses the commercial aspects of all the current trends in medical ceramics and the numerous applications in which they can be used.  The report also profiles key suppliers and analyzes the complete supply chain for medical ceramics.  For the firms covered we discuss their strategies and needs along with their strengths and weaknesses.
 

Slides from the NanoMarkets report, “Market Opportunities for Quantum Dots in Lighting and Displays”

This new NanoMarkets report provides an in depth market analysis of the opportunities emerging within the field of quantum dots (QDs), examining the latest products, strategies and technical developments in electronics applications for these emerging materials.  Within the report we assess how QDs are likely to penetrate addressable markets in lighting and display applications and along what time horizon.  We also examine the technology hurdles facing QDs broader adoption and how the industry will resolve them.  The report also evaluates the potential of QDs vs competing technologies and provides NanoMarkets opinions on how well QDs will fare.

The report also includes NanoMarkets’ assessments of the strategies of leading firms active in the QD space with attention paid as to which are the companies to watch in the market.   In addition, detailed and granular forecasts of QD shipments in volume and value terms and by application will be provided.
